After becoming a chaotic daughter

Taking a taxi from Qingxue back to the detective agency, Nanako, who had paid the fare, made sure of one thing in her heart.

That is, no matter whether she comes back on foot or by bus in the future, she will never take a taxi again.

No matter how many times she has taken a taxi, she always feels that Japanese taxis are really expensive.

She returned to the detective agency, opened the door, and saw a man wearing a black knitted sweater standing in the office area. It was Xia Youjie who she had seen in the agency after she came back from school yesterday.Xia Youjie was standing against an empty desk, looking down at a novel he was holding in his hand, his tied hair was let down, and it looked very relaxed hanging over his shoulders.

Nanako saw the cover. It was a novel that Oda was about to publish. The publisher who came in the first month signed a publishing contract with Oda. A few days ago, a sample of the novel was sent for trial printing, and the book was placed in the detective. on the bookshelf of the club.

Hearing the sound of Nanako coming in, Xia Youjie raised his head and closed the door after seeing her coming in. He was slightly taken aback and asked, "... came back alone?"

Nanako nodded, "Yes."

She walked in with her schoolbag on her back. It seemed that most of the commune members were only away temporarily. The laptops on Kunikida's desk were not covered, and there was still a half box of biscuits on the chaotic table.

"Didn't you meet Wu?" Xia Youjie closed the novel in his hand, as if surprised.

Nanako passed in front of him, took off her schoolbag and put it on the chaotic office chair: "I see."

"Then why did you come back by yourself?" Xia Youjie asked her again.

"There are a lot of girls..." Nanako was halfway through her sentence, and felt that her statement was not accurate, because the crowd around Gojo Satoru seemed to see the boys' black uniforms, so she changed her words and said again, "There are A lot of people surrounded him. I didn’t want to talk to him, so I came back by myself.”

"Don't want to talk to him?" Xia Youjie laughed lightly when he heard Nanako's answer, "Why don't you want to talk to Wu?"

Nanako scratched her head and felt that her hair was a bit messy. She opened the drawer that was walking around and looked for a comb while answering him: "He will pick me up...I don't like being picked up, it's uncomfortable, The neck will hurt."

Besides, talking to Wujo Wu was tiring, and she had to lean her neck. She didn't like talking to Wujo Wu...he didn't know how to give money.

Xia Youjie originally thought it would be an answer like "Gotiao Satoru's words are too much to beat", but he didn't expect Nanako to say this. He reflected on the few times he met Nanako, but he couldn't remember clearly. Didn't I also carry Nanako.

But an apology is always right.

"Sorry, I won't pick you up in the future." Xia Youjie said to Nanako very kindly.

Nanako let out a "hmm", found a comb in the drawer, pulled her hair a few times, combed it neatly, and tied a small braid with a rubber band.

Putting the comb back in the drawer, she looked around, but did not see the other two women who came with Xia Youjie yesterday, one was a young girl who seemed to have just graduated from high school, the other was an aunt in her thirties, They came with Xia Youjie yesterday, but they didn't seem to come today.

Seeming to see what Nanako was thinking, Xia Youjie said, "The social doctor lady went out to do some shopping, and Sister Lizi and the others also went to help."

That's what he said, but Xia Youjie also knew that Lizi probably just wanted to go out and go shopping.Following the social medical lady and Riko and the others, it seems that the member named Oda is about to suffer.

There was the faint sound of someone talking loudly outside the door. Within two seconds, Luanbu pushed the door open and came in. When he came in, he was still righteously accusing Gojo Satoru who was following him.

"...The strongest can't do things like connecting children after school."

"That's because your daughter is too good at running." Gojo Wu walked in with his hands in his trouser pockets, "Did you raise a rabbit?"

If it wasn't because the kid took a taxi, he would of course catch up easily. Even if it was a taxi, he could have caught up with [Cang], but the kid's ability is too troublesome, he can't stop people at all.

Walking into the office area, Ranpo saw Nanako, and immediately threw Gojo Satoru aside.

"Nanako, come and eat cake!" He handed the packaged cake to Nanako. The spring-limited cherry blossom matcha mousse in the cafe downstairs is probably "Sakura-shaped matcha-flavored mousse". The green cherry blossoms look strange. Strange.

Nanako ran over to get the cake, found an empty office chair and sat down, buried her head in unpacking the box, and before she could take a bite, Luanbu scooped up a spoonful and stuffed it into her mouth.

Standing in the office area, Gojo Wu and Xia Youjie were standing a few steps away. They were all dressed in black, but Gojo Wu was still wearing a high school uniform, but Xia Youjie was wearing ordinary black casual clothes up.

They looked at each other without saying a word. Although they had met each other this morning, neither of them spoke first.

"...Father, if you eat any more, there will be nothing left." Seeing that Luanbu took one bite after another, two "petals" of the originally small mousse had been scooped away, Nanako took the spoon and dried Baba said.

She hasn't eaten yet.

"One last bite!" Luanbu promised her, then stretched out the spoon, scooped out half of the "petal" and stuffed it into his mouth after two bites.

Nanako: "..."

Half the mousse was gone.

Leaving the rest of the mousse to Nanako, he interrupted Gojo Satoru and Xia Youjie who were hanging up with a wave of his hand, and said to them, "Go to the reception room."

He walked into the reception room first, and the two people behind him followed him in without saying anything.

As soon as he entered the reception room, Luanbu occupied the spacious double sofa. Seeing Gojo Wu and Xia Youjie settled down on the two single sofas opposite him, he said straightforwardly: "I've already dealt with the murder over there." I went to investigate—but there is nothing to say, after all, the murderer who is involved is sitting here now, and has already admitted this matter."

"A family of four living next door to Riko Tennai - father, mother, and a pair of six-year-old twin girls. Both the parents and the twin son died of homicide. The wounds were the same, and sharp objects such as scissors were pierced through. , One-hit death, it should be some kind of magic spirit. The daughter was electrocuted to death in the bathroom of Riko Tennai's residence, which looked like an accident.

He said so, but the next sentence was: "What perverted parents, they are able to teach their six-year-old daughter to use the bathroom to create an electric leakage accident, and let the little daughter die with Tiannei. But it's true, after all Few people would be wary of a six-year-old girl who came to borrow the bathroom to take a bath."

In other words, both the parents and the son died from the curse, and only the daughter was taught to "suicide" by her parents.

"The identity of the deceased has also been confirmed." Luanbu propped his head and leaned on the armrest of the sofa, his tone could not tell whether he liked or disliked, "It's a remnant of the Panxing Sect. They moved to the current residence a year ago, and they planned everything To kill Tian Nei, it took a lot of effort to get along well with Tian Nei and the others. After all, the servant next to Tian Nei...what is his name? Hei Jing? For ordinary people, it is difficult enough to deal with , That's why their family took this roundabout method, trying to gain the trust of Riko Tennai first."

"It's just that they didn't expect that someone from the high school, that is, Xia You, suddenly came to Yokohama to look for Riko Tenuchi. It must be because they mistakenly thought that Tenuchi was going to be taken away by you and protected. If that was the case, it would be difficult for them I found an opportunity to attack, so I hurriedly acted after you came."

After explaining the results of today's on-site investigation, Luanbu showed a lack of interest: "It's just some rough tricks, even if I don't need to do it, you can investigate the matter of the Panxing Sect Remnants by yourself It’s just a matter of spending a little more effort.”

"As for the village, it's too far away, I can't go to the scene, and I don't have any information at hand, you can go investigate it yourself, or ask me after you get the information. But according to what you say--" Luan Bu looked To Xia Youjie, "The speed of that village's perishing was too fast. Someone must have used your curse to do something."

"In short, I have already found the person, and the entrusted matters have been completed, and the rest is your own business."

After he finished what he had to say, he took out a bag of potato chips from under the coffee table in a chaotic manner, and just started eating.Gojo Satoru entrusted him to find someone, but he didn't spend any effort at all, because Xia Youjie came to the detective agency and asked him to investigate the identities of the family of four. Now that both commissions have been resolved, the rest is none of his business. .

As for the "murder" of the family of four, it has been handed over to the Curse Division, and it is not under the management of the detective agency.

To put it bluntly, it is actually a group of murderers who were brainwashed by the church and failed to kill, but were killed instead.Two children, one died of an electric leakage accident of his own making, and the other had a bomb strapped to his body and a knife in his hand before he died.Luanpo remembered that Tennei Riko's servant had a knife wound on her arm, and she and Miss Xie Ye helped her re-treat it yesterday.

The reception room became quiet, only the sound of chaotic steps, clicking, biting potato chips, and after an indeterminate amount of time, the sound of Gojo Satoru speaking could be heard in the room.

"So, Jay. Do you have anything to say?"

"The things that need to be explained, I have already told you in the morning." Xia Youjie answered him calmly, "There are problems in the current world--magicians and non-magicians, high-level and ordinary people Man, there's a [problem] with all of this."

"Then what do you want to do?" Gojo Satoru asked him, "Kill all the magicians? Kill all the non-sorcerers? Or kill all the high-level people? Solve this problem?"

——"None at all."

Xia Youjie answered him.

"The powerful must protect the weak, and the conjurer must protect the non-conjurer. Ordinary people produce magic spirits, but they need to be exorcised by the conjurer, and let the conjurer sacrifice for ordinary people, even if the soul is dirty and ugly. Weakness. The magician is obviously the stronger one, but he is always inferior to the weak, and he is even bullied because he is not understood. Like Mimiko and Nanako, they clearly drove away the curse spirit with their strength. To be beaten and imprisoned by the villagers as an ominous thing and a culprit—not even considered a 'person'."

"To be honest, my will was shaken at that time." Xia Youjie said in an understatement tone, "So I left a special magic spirit for the village. disappeared from the world."

He turned his face sideways and cast his eyes on Wujo Wujo, with a slight smile on his face: "This is something I have been thinking about for the past few years. Wujo, it's like people with supernatural powers don't have to protect non-supernatural powers Why do magicians have to protect non-magicians?"

"Not only that, when the higher-ups ordered me to take Sister Lizi back, I had new problems in my heart. You should have thought about it too. Why does Sister Lizi have to die? Whether it is to let her Assimilated with Tianyuan, or killed by the remnants of the Panxing Sect, both magicians and non-sorcerers are coveting her life, even a six-year-old child, after the death of his parents and sister, still insists on picking up a knife wanted to stab her."

He asked Gojo Satoru, "What went wrong?"

"Is it the "non-magic masters" we want to protect that are wrong? After killing all the non-magic masters, there will be no more magic spirits in this world, and there will be no need for Tianyuan's enchantment. Sister Lizi will not have to die. ?... But you also know that 99 Youji said that Tianyuan's current situation is very stable. You understand what this means."

Xia Youjie exhaled, his tensed shoulders relaxed slowly, and he came to the final conclusion.

"Enlightenment, it is this order that is wrong."

"And what I have to do now is to correct this wrong order."

He would kill no one, yet he could kill anyone.

*******

Five minutes later, Gojo Satoru and Xia Youjie were kicked out of the detective agency.

Edogawa Ranpo really can't listen to these two magicians chatting about whether to kill non-sorcerers or not. During dinner, he asked Kunikida to make a sign saying "Sorcerers not allowed inside". Soon it was hung on the gate of the detective agency.

"Father, what is 'Sorcerer'?" Nanako looked at the extra sign under the [Armed Detective Agency] nameplate and asked Ranpo in confusion.

Ranbu replied perfunctorily: "It's just magic."

"……Oh."

Nanako felt as if she had understood that "Sorcerer" was probably the abbreviation of "Magician".

She glanced at Kunikida, who was checking whether the sign was hanging crookedly, and then at Gogol, who was passing by with his cloak swinging, and decided to pretend that she didn't know anything.

The author has something to say:

Logic chain: Ordinary people produce spell spirits → magicians must protect ordinary people → magicians destroy magic spirits in order to protect ordinary people → magicians are injured and lose their lives but thankless, and are treated as aliens by ordinary people

In the original book, Xia Youjie cut off the first one, killed ordinary people, and made everyone a magician, thus overturning the entire logic chain.

Xia Youjie in the article cut out the second article, overturning the current order of "the magician should destroy the curse spirit in order to protect ordinary people", making the magician like a supernatural person, what he likes, ordinary people don't care about me, For this reason, he intends to rebuild the order of the entire magic world.

In the original work, Gojo Satoru "can't convince the public even if the high-level bloodbath is washed", so it is a gradual "improvement" to cultivate students and let fresh blood replace the old orange high-level.

Xia Youjie in the article intends to "revolution" directly, engage in pyramid schemes (bushi) to find companions, and pull out a new "high-level mantra" to kill the old ones directly, and change power.

The above logic is all my own, just look at it and forget it, Amen.

In fact, I still haven't fully understood what the "high-level people in the magic world" are. They never show up, but everyone should listen to them. If they say death penalty, they will be executed. Does Japan, the magic world, have no judicial organs [subway, old man] , mobile phone.jpg
